      Fedex sent my VM1 to the wrong house. The guy who received it bought it back to me, and 10 min later the driver came by and said 'did you get your package'. I was glad it didnt go MIA.

  4. Going do work today! Lets gooooo

  5. OOOOOOOO.... VM1 and DB Project inputs are here tomorrow. :) :) :)

      No, I know fedex sucks horrible. Fedex smart shipping will NEVER be done. I found out how that works. IDK if you know, but that stuff is in your city weeks before they deliver it. The post office just lets it sit in the back until they want to deliver it. I personally love ups. I have a great guy who goes out of his way to get me my stuff fast once he gets it. He will even call.

      Nate, by any chance, any way to pick it up? The smart shipping bs. "At U.S. Postal Service facility" is my thing. Do you know if there's a way I can say screw that and go pick it up? Or do you not know?

      Err, scratch that. "Out for delivery"... lol. I swear, not here today... SOMEONE GON DIE!!! $84 worth of cologne. Shit that is no longer made. Delicious smelling stuff, stuff you wish you could eat.

  6. Back home. Back on rebuild tomorrow. Can't wait.

      My mac os was being updated so that I could update my new iPhone so I had nothing yesterday. I'll get some up today. The doors were just a beast and hand making your own battery terminals because they needed to be custom was just a long long process. The back door 6.5 mid bass is too large and will hit my window so we have more to figure out about that. The main problem was figuring out what the local audio shop did on my first install. Just crap everywhere.

  9. Build log updated for anyone who's interested.

  10. Realized you can work allllll day and have very little to show for it. Few pics coming within the hour. Nothing major today.

      I did the same thing. LOL. Spent half the day and all I did was put in a battery...

    2. Nates_Veloster

      Nates_Veloster

      We spent ALL day and the battery isn't finished. There are all kinds of weird wires that connect to the factory battery so we had to modify and fit everything. We have it figured out but need a few more things

  11. XS battery on front isn't a plug-n-play. Sucks. Modifying factory wires in the rain, hoping they don't void my warranty. WEATHER SUCKS!

  12. Never done terminals before. What should I get (material) to make these?

    1. Chris Hammer

      Chris Hammer

      Battery terminals? Or buss bars?

    2. Carbon

      Copper if youve for the bank. Aluminum if your on a budget :)

      Sorry. I forgot there are a ton of different ways to take what I meant. I was talking about sub box terminals. I went with stainless

  13. I really wanna pull an all nighter and get this puppy started. I need a garage or a shop. :)

  14. Pasti came in today! They took forever.

  15. sky high stuff came in. back after a few days. rebuild starts tomorrow! I am a huge sky high fan. Those guys rock.

      imnew59585

      another fan! order some copper lugs from them time to play the waiting game

  16. Gave my hand a try at a banner. What'cha think?

  17. LOL. I wish Carbon. I'd love to run all SMD rca's and these and the VM. Sadly I am all tapped out. The next thing I will buy and am saving for is a alt. Being a youth pastor, I can't roll with you big boys. I just like doing my little build and having fun with some super cool guys on here. Plus taking a huge chance and moving to NOLA to start a youth group, so I am tapped. I do want one though and I haven't seen any info on them, hence my question on how much. One day. One day.
  18. I see both threads about these things an I know Kylar got his hands on some. How much are they and are they coming back?
  19. Proud owner of a new DD-1. Photos going on build page. :) Thanks Steve.
